Good Hope Hospital, part of Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust, has purchased a Toshiba Infinix VC-i vascular imaging system fitted with a ceiling-mounted C-arm to enable all-round patient access.
Modality lead for intervention Theresa Duffy said: “We chose the Toshiba equipment due to its high standard of image quality, flexibility and manoeuvrability for procedures.
“We were really pleased with the added advantage of lateral movement of the C-arm. This assists in easy use and access, in particular with dialysis work which makes it easier for the operator and patient comfort.”
